    I Felt I Should Drop in and Explain Why I Left

    Thank you. Now, when these words of knowledge (if that's what they are called) are given, do those who give these words say: "The Lord told me. . ." or something to that effect?

    I Felt I Should Drop in and Explain Why I Left

    If someone doesn't have access to a "mourner's bench", can they still come to understand the things of God? If so, how?

    I Felt I Should Drop in and Explain Why I Left

    How do you know what the percentage is? Do you use a spreadsheet?

    What Happens to a Person Who Dies in Unbelief?

    If a man dies denying Christ, can we be certain of his fate or not?

    You've completely misunderstood my posts, and likely because you've jumped to conclusions. Read them again, carefully, and perhaps you will have a direct opinion. See post #34.

    Stephen Hawking Succumbs 14 March AD 2018

    Again, find something that I've actually said, not what you imagine I've said, and agree or disagree with it. Also, do you see the irony in condemning me? Do you imagine you are standing on safe ground condemning a Christian?

    Why so many non-Baptist?

    I'll leave it alone after this, but you've unfairly framed this with things like: "Jesus is enough for me" implying that He is not enough for me, and that is quite unfair and of course, untrue.

    Why so many non-Baptist?

    I hear you. Friends are those of whom we can say, "you too?". A common like or dislike is what friendships are built upon.

    Why so many non-Baptist?

    Yes. Birds of a feather. . . I prefer taking people who think as I do, but that gets boring. Echo chambers initially are gratifying, but they have no ability to sharpen us, so I also like engaging with people who hold wordviews other than mine. At the end of the day, I agree with you. I really...

    You seem angry, and angry people can be irrational. You are accusing me of things that I have not done, and you are hurling insults at me based upon that. Read my posts. If you find something disagreeable in what I said, please make a case against them. I'm always willing to learn.

    Why so many non-Baptist?

    Calvinists are not real? Are you saying that I am not real? Calvinists need something more? I find that to be just the opposite. When, for the 20+ years that I was not a Calvinist, I was always searching for more - for something else. It wasn't until I came to understand the truth of God's...

    Why so many non-Baptist?

    Are you opposed to Calvinists or non-Baptist Calvinists?

    Stephen Hawking Succumbs 14 March AD 2018

    No one is condemning him, as if we were his judge, at least in the posts I've read. One man has no power or authority to condemn another. What we do have the ability to do is to judge a man's actions and words, either for good or bad. You are judging in your post. Are you aware of that?

    If you would act your age, discussions might be pleasurable, and you might have some valuable input. . .

    Stephen Hawking Succumbs 14 March AD 2018

    I know only what he put forth, and I judge according to that. It strikes me that some here aren't confident of Christ's teaching when they are shy about the harsh reality of Hell. I wish no man Hell. If I could prevent it for all, I would, but to deny my Lord in His warnings regarding it for...

    Stephen Hawking Succumbs 14 March AD 2018

    Do you preach a gospel of ID or of Christ? Those who live and die without Christ are lost. If we can confidently tell someone that if he places his trust in Christ he will be saved, then we can confidently tell them if they reject Him they will be lost. These aren't my ideas. I read them in...

    Exactly, and we should not be shy about it. We are not holding the gavel and condemning him. We are simply believing what God has promised. I wish no man condemnation, but I take God at his word when He says that He will condemn.

    Stephen Hawking Succumbs 14 March AD 2018

    I base my statements on his testimony. Are you confident when you tell a person that if he believes in Christ that he will be forgiven and have eternal life? I am. And I am just as confident when I say that Hawking, in his unbelief, faces eternal torment and condemnation. Confidence in the...

    Your post doesn't deserve an answer, because of its childish nature, but for the sake of onlookers, wrong about what?
